This is my attempt to use gold color metal findings (instead the copper color I'm more used to). It came out very bright in color, so it was difficult to photograph. Very fancy, suitable for theatre maybe
Idea to use seedbeads that way came from vintage costume jewelry brand Miriam Haskell. My first try to use box clasp with prongs. I got them by chance, one shop had these for a moment and with no plan to reorder, and I bought all they had! I should order matching perforated discs for these (I managed to use here stamped filigree plate but perforated discs are better - easier to attach).

I wasn't sure if I should post this design or not, because there is a small amount of CYS elements compared to other findings. It's possible to make it all with CYS pearls instead of Czech glass pearls but I just couldn't afford it

Allthough the rhinestones are small and seem to dissapear in all the beads and pearls, they have a huge roll. Since this collection has quite "dull" monochromatic color, it's up to CYS swarovski rhinestones to sparkle and lighten it up. They show off while somebody is wearing this jewelry - they sparkle in every movement! While the sparkle catches the eye, one start to feel interest

This set or collection has a sweet and light vintage touch to it. I guess it requires a certain boldness and character from the wearer. But as you can see there are different levels from modest towards the bold, so everybody can pick the items that suit them best.
